Email design best practices best-practices
When sending emails, it’s important to consider that recipients may forward them, which can sometimes cause issues with the email’s rendering. This is particularly true when using CSS classes that may not be supported by the email provider used for forwarding, for example, if you’re using the “is-desktop-hidden” CSS class to hide an image on mobile devices.
To minimize these rendering issues, we recommend keeping your email design structure as simple as possible. Try to use a single design that works well for both desktop and mobile devices, and avoid using complex CSS classes or other design elements that may not be fully supported by all email clients. By following these best practices, you can help ensure that your emails are consistently rendered correctly, regardless of how they are viewed or forwarded by recipients.
